INTRODUCTION The U.S. is struggling to effectively contest its adversaries in cyberspace. It would seem natural for the U.S. to be the leader in every aspect of internet operations, after all, the internet was invented in the U.S., and the U.S. is dominant in many areas. However, there are regions of cyberspace in which the U.S. is not the leader, perhaps because of a misapprehension about the nature of cyberspace.1 This paper will provide a definition of cyberspace suitable for national security strategy discussions and address how the U.S. should approach cyberspace operations to engage its adversaries in the most effective manner. Historically, the U.S. has been a champion at leveraging soft power. Cyberspace has become an essential way to increase the reach and penetration of soft power, yet the U.S. appears on some levels to be losing in cyberspace to non- state groups like ISIS and to other State actors such as Russia. This paper suggests that it would be more effective to think of cyberspace as a combination of infrastructure (the internet) and the information and ideas that move across the infrastructure (the ideosphere, as defined below). This model of cyberspace helps increase the emphasis on engaging with the actors and information using the internet in ways counter to U.S. national interests. II. BACKGROUND Cyberspace is an unprecedented national security challenge. It doesn’t align with standard U.S. government organizational constructs, which are generally either geographic or defined by specific functionality. Although it is hosted on physical infrastructure that has a physical location, it’s often not helpful to think of cyberspace in geographic terms. Additionally, it’s not straightforward to characterize it functionally because cyber capabilities support every 1 At least one author rejects the notion that cyberspace can even have a nature. This may reflect the definitional problem discussed below. See Lawrence Lessig, Code and Other Laws of Cyberspace (1999). 3 DOCUMENT2 (DO NOT DELETE) 4/27/2017 2017 Penn State Journal of Law & International Affairs 5:1 agency and activity, and enable adversary activities, as well as being the primary focus of some adversary missions. U.S. strategy seems to put less emphasis to acting on information, rather, focusing on the physical elements of cyberspace.2 Concentrating on the hardware and operating systems – basically the internet – rather than other elements of cyberspace requires confronting specific operational issues. The internet is, well, the internet. Disabling or destroying hardware in one location may have transnational effects. It can raise sovereignty concerns for allies and others, and restrict the ability of the U.S. to operate, in addition to compromising intelligence equities. Perhaps most vexing though, disabling or destroying hardware raises questions of how to attribute those activities to individual actors. Engaging on content rather than infrastructure can limit these issues. To some extent the U.S. has begun to realize this, undertaking at least some discussion about engaging ISIS on both its ability to use the internet to communicate, and about changing the communications to alter the message.3 Infrastructure-focused strategy also represents a lost opportunity. Cyber operations aren’t a particularly good method for asserting national interests directly because of the ancillary effects set out above, and because they tend to be packets of boutique capabilities that don’t easily translate to large-scale operations. However, cyberspace is an ideal medium for the exercise of soft power.4 Spreading ideals of freedom of speech, economic principles, and democratically-driven culture, for example, supports U.S. national security interests. As noted below, U.S. adversaries have 2 Infra. 3 Sanger, U.S. Cyberattacks Target ISIS in a New Line of Combat, N.Y.

It arises from the attractiveness of a country’s culture, political ideals, and policies. Joseph S.

III. RIVAL APPROACHES TO CYBERSPACE Although the U.S. is skilled in cyber activity, its focus has been on espionage and, to a lesser extent, on military activity aimed at disrupting or damaging internet infrastructure. Focusing on cyber infrastructure for non-intelligence operations has placed the U.S. behind some of its rivals in important aspects of cyberspace. Set out below are three examples of approaches to the strategic use of cyberspace that largely focus on the content rather than the infrastructure, along with suggestions regarding how the U.S. might glean lessons from each. A. China The modern Chinese economy was built on commercial espionage.5 The Chinese government has even gone so far as to formalize the strategy of stealing intellectual property to advance its economy, developing a branch of the PLA, Unit 61398, dedicated to cyber espionage. By stealing industrial secrets to advance its economic might, China is following a strategy modeled in the early days of the U.S. The U.S. has protested, but it is hard to ignore the historical irony of the situation. It was national policy in the early days of the American republic to acquire European technology by any means available, a policy that resulted in the U.S. emerging as the world’s industrial leader.6 For example, in 1789 Samuel Slater emigrated to the U.S., bringing with him an intimate knowledge of the Arkwright spinning frames that had transformed textile 5 Joshua Philipp, Hacking and Espionage Fuel China’s Growth, EPOCH TIMES (Sept. 10, 2015), http://www.theepochtimes.com/n3/1737917-investigative-report -china-theft-incorporated/. 6 Doron Ben-Atar, Trade Secrets: Intellectual Piracy and the Origins of American Industrial Power (2004); Alexander Hamilton, Report on the Subject of Manufactures (Dec. 5, 1791), http://www.constitution.org/ah/rpt_manufactures.pdf. 5 DOCUMENT2 (DO NOT DELETE) 4/27/2017 2017 Penn State Journal of Law & International Affairs

    Collaborative En Route Airspace Management Considering Stochastic Demand, Capacity, and Weather Conditions by Jeffrey M. Henderson A dissertation presented to the Faculty of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Civil Engineering Dr. Antonio Trani, Chair Dr. Hojong Baik Dr. Hesham Rakha Dr. Gerardo Flintsch Dr. C. Patrick Koelling March 26, 2008 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Airspace, Thunderstorms, Equity, Air Traffic Control, Simulation Copyright 2008, Jeffrey M. Henderson Collaborative En Route Airspace Management Considering Stochastic Demand, Capacity, and Weather Conditions Jeffrey M. Henderson ABSTRACT The busiest regions of airspace in the U.S. are congested during much of the day from traffic volume, weather, and other airspace restrictions. The projected growth in demand for airspace is expected to worsen this congestion while reducing system efficiency and safety. This dissertation focuses on providing methods to analyze en route airspace congestion during severe convective weather (i.e. thunderstorms) in an effort to provide more efficient aircraft routes in terms of: en route travel time, air traffic controller workload, aircraft collision potential, and equity between airlines and other airspace users. The en route airspace is generally that airspace that aircraft use between the top of climb and top of descent. Existing en route airspace flight planning models have several important limitations. These models do not appropriately consider the uncertainty in airspace demand associated with departure time prediction and en route travel time. Also, airspace capacity is typically assumed to be a static value with no adjustments for weather or other dynamic conditions that impact the air traffic controller.

Drone technology has grown exponentially and the law has to contend its growth. We have reached technological breakthroughs in the form of unmanned aviation as they have reached their fullest potential and ready to be implemented for civilian applications like surveillance, nuclear-biological- chemical (NBC) sensing/tracking, traffic monitoring, flood mapping, crime investigation, police, motion picture, news and media support, cargo transportation, monitoring of sensitive sites (like Fukushima nuclear catastrophe), forests fire monitoring, etc. The manned aircraft which are globally in-use may be replaced with the unmanned aircraft due to its eco-friendly nature based on less CO2 emissions, less noise pollution etc. It has been predicted by Association of Unmanned Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI) that the global market for civilian unmanned aircraft stood at US$11.3bn in 2013 and has the potential to grow to over US$140bn in the next ten years. It further stated that 80 percent of the commercial market for drones eventually will be for agricultural uses. Thus, the emerging civil drone sector across the globe has a wide application and will have a significant impact on jobs, the economy, how business is carried out and the aviation industry.

The Nomination as Poet Laureate Falling this year the twentieth anniversary of the death of the Russian-born poet and essayist Joseph Brodsky, it becomes particularly significant to remind one of his last commitments, somehow fallen into oblivion amongst the critics: his plan to foster literature in the United States - a project that linked him further to the social and cultural reality of his host country. Joseph Brodsky, exile in the USA since 1972, was appointed “fifth Poet Laureate Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress,” on 10 May 1991.1 He was the first non-American born writer to receive the highest acknowledgement in the United States. This last important public achievement came after several literary awards - the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1987 being the most prestigious one – and proved a final turning point for his work: from 1992 until his death in January 1996, he published exclusively in English.2 This paper aims at analyzing the contents of Brodsky’s “Immodest Proposal,” first presented during the speech he gave at the inaugural evening at the Library of Congress, as well as investigating the extraordinary results of the project that ensued, in the following years. In a time when the primacy of the press was not yet surpassed by electronic publications, Brodsky’s plan recounts of an extraordinary effort made in the spreading of culture, and of poetry in specific.
